Description

He built and crafted with all his heart.

Whether totemic nature magic, mechanical and alchemical factories, nanomachines, teleporters, alchemy, enchanting, mining, and farming, there were no ends. From the lowly stone age he moved reached levels of technology thought only imaginary and magic which made worlds quake.

Things aren’t perfect though. Monsters and beasts fill the world, growing stronger by the day, a malignant force is ever present… And strange, bountiful ruins of all sorts remain scattered throughout the world, abandoned yet maintained by faithful servants.

But what mattered most to Joey was the little black cube which not only redefined his worldview, but allowed him to transform the world into something utterly marvellous.

This story heavily focuses on crafting progression of both magic and tech, where in something is crafted to unlock a new resource or way to craft something better. Heavily influenced on games with such structure.

As there is no backlog, chapter releases will be as written, which hopefully will be once a day but depends on progress made per day.

Enjoying this story as it reminds me of some good difficult Minecraft progression modpacks. The progression is done quite well with a massive crafting tree as well as magic skill trees.
The world lore so far is interesting and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes. The writing is quite good and seems pretty well edited. Overall a very enjoyable story thus far.

A great alternative to the average story on here, where the main character has to work for what they get and develop. both world crafting and actual crafting are beautifully done, though some like me may find the raw numbers a bit distracting when they pop up every so often there's really not a lit genuinely negative to say about this. It's not super story focused so far more slice of life but in fairness does bill itself as exactly that, and on top of which the slower pace allows for some great development of understanding the world the main character finds themselves in. It would be great to dig more into the origin story of the main character and the reason for their continued existence post standard apocalypse, but I have faith that as the author continues this we will get there. lots of subtle hints and mysteries in this one and well worth picking up. the author has mentioned finishing after book one which is a little off-putting as it's such a fantastic offering, so hopefully they'll look to carry the story on. due to the two hundred word requirement this review may end up being a bit waffle, but should be taken as a sign of how worth supporting the book I think is. Grammar, flow and spelling are all ten out of ten which is a welcome change against some other self published fiction

Well written isekai. Have only read a few chapters but feel this is sufficiently well written and different to the usual to be worth recommending.
SPOILER; MC is moved into what is basically a Minecraft type world, with skill trees, environment and threats to his life which are similar to the game. The world is not physically a [block world] to the perception of the MC, being similar in appearance to a natural world. However all the craft and skill elements are close to the Minecraft genre, and the puzzle/ power-quest is familiar enough to anyone who has played.
Hope to add further to my comments - looking forward to reading the rest of this.
